Perfect use case

Primary use case is through terminal/web interface.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the touchscreen was a similar cost to a non-touchscreen at that size and they figured “might as well”.

(if that service goes down, everyone in my house gets mad at me)

I bought a PiZero and set it up as a redundant pihole for this reason. It’s slower because it’s wireless, but not super noticeable since it’s ‘just’ DNS. I have the router pointed at the main and backup all the time and if I need to do something (or break the main one messing with dockers) there’s still the backup until I get the main up.

I messed around with some High Availability configs where they both had the ‘same’ ip but could never get it working smoothly. I just use the teleporter functionality within pihole any time I update anything to keep them in sync, which is rare.

Only real reason IMO is dust can collect on the seam and it’s annoying to clean without taking the peel off anyway.

IDK why people get weird about it.

That’s an embargo.

A blockade is military stopping traffic. “Effectively a blockade” is an embargo.

He bought co-founder status at Paypal too IIRC. He was ousted in part because he wanted to rename it “x.com”. Weird that.

Geostorm. Fun enough throwaway Gerard Butler movie.

The second one.

Mirroring is good for speed, but a storage mechanism with parity checks will always be more recoverable. And you will have far more storage available.

Would be interested in seeing/reading more about it, don’t have/want the subscription to read the white paper. Just seems like it could be somewhat like mirrors where it’s important for the glass to be liquid at one point so there’s no distortions and a strong bond but then once it’s constructed it just sits there.

And before that there were several decades of massive incentive to develop smaller more powerful ICE engines.

Lithium probably has some room to grow, but it also has a lot of problems like volatility and materials sourcing. EV manufacturers have been searching for ways to make better/cheaper/denser batteries, not better/cheaper/denser lithium batteries. They’ve been actively searching for alternatives.

It does say “during assembly […] to form a solid current collector while maintaining a liquid-like contact with the electrolyte”.

After it’s made it could be not under pressure at all.

Is your home connection down that much? I’d think that even syncing once every day or so would populate everything fine, and if you’re at home it should update over wifi.

I might just be spoiled because I’m the only one using mine and only for a handful of devices.

Also a gas! Astronomical spectroscopy is fascinating.

“The star radiates at [these] wavelengths meaning it has [this] composition, after the light bounces off/through the planet we see <these> wavelengths, meaning it has <this> composition.”

The camera is many sensors.

You can overload anything by tasking it to do too much.

During prohibition grape (formerly wine) producers sold grape juice with the warning label “don’t store in a cool dark place for multiple weeks or this product may become illegal”. (or something to that effect) You can do much the same with any grain or fruit.

For Marijuana you have to at least get seeds/the plant first, which are now a controlled product. Yeah it’ll grow anywhere (hence “weed”), but you still have to source it and plant it somewhere with sunlight.

Brewing at scale and/or for a specific product is difficult, making alcohol is easy.

Remember when Edison electrocuted a bunch of animals to prove how dangerous AC was? Do you not believe AC can be used correctly?

Nitrogen is one of the methods advocated for by right-to-die advocates for a reason.

Botched execution of the execution are one of the reasons there shouldn’t be executions. A bunch of guys “playing it by ear” who want the accused to suffer are not going to do a good job.

Yeah Nintendo tends to move pretty quick on these things. From what I’ve seen there’s not an obvious objection that wouldn’t also include things like Digimon.

The problem with proposing infrastructure is that people hate it. Even if it would be beneficial. Train traffic is limited to 79 mph in the US because the companies in charge were told “put in more safety devices or you’re limited to 79 mph”, and they said “okay sure”.

They usually act like anything that wasn’t around when they were born is impossible. I can’t imagine trying to get a smoking ban passed now, or capping the national speed limit at 55 because of an oil crisis.

We should abolish the death penalty.

Pretending no one knows what happens when people breathe pure nitrogen until they die is absolutely ludicrous. Especially because what you’re breathing right now is mostly nitrogen.

We know what happens because it happens to mine workers and scuba divers and others by accident. It’s pretty pain/panic-less, which is normally why it’s such a big deal to try and avoid. It’s advocated for as a method by right-to-die proponents because it’s so painless. Pretending this is random human experimentation just gives leverage to dismiss the entire argument.
